Aquarius September 2022

Make or break moments are here, dear Aquarius. When Venus moves into Virgo on September 5, a burst of tension arrives in your sky that rules deep entanglements and anxieties anchored onto your nervous system. Are you ready to assert your boundaries in relationships and advocate for the distinct needs you have? Or are you scared of losing a familiar bond? Embrace this period of revision and brutal honesty. 

A few days later on September 9, Mercury begins to retrograde through air sign Libra! Remember that retrogrades are a period for review and revision; slowness and somber thought. As you sit with old knowledge you’ve released with age, consider how those old ways of thinking still impact you. Try to let go of old ways of thinking you’re still holding onto while this communication planet moves backwards in the sky. The full moon in Pisces on September 10 makes moves in the zone of your sky that rules value and material matters. Remember that full moons symbolize the end to a cycle, so work toward manifesting the movement you need to occur that aids your fiscal dreams. 

When the Autumnal Equinox and beginning of Libra season occur on September 25, the scales begin to balance in favor of you finding an equilibrium between what you know, and what you’ve yet to learn. Can you reckon with the unknown? That same day there’s a Mercury Cazimi in Libra that offers you exciting downloads about the way you value and use knowledge you’re offered. On September 25, with the new moon in Libra you’re called into acceptance of a new journey you’re going on. It might be to a faraway place, so prepare to buckle in! Finally, Venus enters Libra on September 29 and helps you to see beauty in places that you’ve never bothered to look.

Aquarius August 2022

What is your home not giving you that you need right now? August 1 brings a bold clash between Mars and Uranus that amplifies any tensions that you’re experiencing with the place you call yours, and folks in your chosen family. Let yourself break free in a way that feels right, whether it’s stepping away from your space or reorganizing your entire room. Then on August 4, Mercury moves into Virgo where it infuses a new level of intensity to your words. Are you ready to finally have some deep talks with an old lover, or someone you’re entangled with? Don’t avoid topics that feel uncomfortably personal. 

Venus moves into fire sign Leo on August 11, shining a light onto your zone of relationships and partnerships. Can you smell the love in the air? Keep in mind what level you’re willing to commit to (or not commit to) around this time as your magnetism will be at an all time high! The next day on August 12, there’s a full moon in your sign. This marks the end of a cycle for you, so expect to both celebrate and grieve at the same time. Surround yourself with loved ones if possible. 

On August 20, energetic Mars enters Gemini in your zone of playfulness and joy! This, in addition to Venus’ current position, is bringing you a hot, hot summer. Mercury enters social air sign Libra on August 26, and pushes you to think past the already far limits of your mind. How can you embrace an even more unconventional way of thinking outside the box? It might take going somewhere new… Finally, your month rounds off with an intense and cathartic new moon in Virgo. Try not to rationalize your emotions away during this time. Write lists and get organized, but make space for release.

Aquarius July 2022

Mars’ July 4 entrance to Taurus stirs up conflict amongst family members. Funnel your energy into home improvement projects instead of arguments! Mercury enters Cancer on the same day, helping you concentrate on the details and manage routine business. If you have a health concern, consult a professional before blowing it out of proportion in your mind. Worry never solves the problem! The July 13 Capricorn full moon awakens material buried within your subconscious; perhaps a long-lost memory or creative idea. While these visions can prove healing, they might fade like a dream with the passage of time, so journal what comes up for you to avoid forgetting the lunar message. 

Venus enters Cancer on July 17, signaling easy-going interactions with coworkers, and Mercury’s July 19 entrance to Leo aids you in finding common ground in partnerships. However, wound-healer asteroid Chiron’s retrograde station on the same day encourages you to challenge insecurities you hold regarding the authority of your voice and opinions. Remember, you don’t have to be correct all the time for others to take you seriously! 

The sun enters Leo on July 22, spotlighting relationship dynamics in the month ahead. At this time, you’ll learn about yourself through your companions. Cooperation is key, and so is getting a little bit outside of your comfort zone. During the July 28 Leo new moon, set intentions for inviting in healthy alliances with people who love you for who you are. Jupiter stations retrograde on the same day, bursting some networking bubbles. Lucky breaks might dissolve, but this will reveal which opportunities for growth are legit, and which are built on false promises.
